Air your concerns in Grand Junction!

The Air Quality Control Commission of the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment (CDPHE) is holding a rare public meeting in western Colorado! C’mon down to voice your support for clean air, healthy communities and public health.

* Uranium’s possible comeback in western Colorado could risk public health, and the pending Pinon Ridge Uranium Mill air permit should include both high standards and local hearings.

* Grand Junction’s winter time inversions this year were so bad that sensitive populations were forced to stay indoors. Something needs to be done on regional ozone before Mesa County’s air gets even worse!

* CDPHE can help local air quality by partnering with BLM on Resource Management Plans; by advocating for strict industry pollution standards, and by managing Off Highway Vehicle travel on western Colorado’s dirt roads.
